Verizon, ranked the 15th largest company in America, has a dedicated unit specializing in Automated Retailing. According to the Verizon website, "Automated Retail solutions allow merchants to tap into more sales opportunities by placing convenient, self-service machines in high-traffic areas. Quick, wireless transactions and near real-time reporting on inventory and sales data help to control costs. And customers get immediate access to the items they want any time."

Rite Aid unveiled what it called its "next generation" Wellness store that features an easy-to-use kiosk that allows customers to conveniently order glasses and contact lenses and try on new frames. Rite Aid is one of the nation's leading drugstore chains with more than 4,600 stores and fiscal 2012 annual revenues of $26.1 billion.

According to KioskMarketplace.com, the automated systems allow Walmart to "increase photo center traffic and revenue from high-margin products without dedicated labor."
